The Bottom Line: that's why people love spanking so much

Look how far back the fine art of spanking can be traced.

In 1960, archaeologist Carlo Maurilio Lerici descended into tombs in the old town of Tarquinia, a necropolis of the refined Etruscan civilization that inhabited ancient Italy from about 800 BC until its assimilation into the Roman Republic in the late 4th century BC. Aside from bodies, he found countless badly damaged frescos depicting comical male boxers, sexualized female dancers, and most notably, in The Tomb of the Floggins, one in which an unclothed woman is bent over and holding the hips of a smiling bearded man while a young man whips her ass from behind—the first discovered example of erotic spanking.

Google found the piece for me on a standard daily search, I just thought it was interesting, in parts anyway. Here's the link to the full article on broadlyvice.com.

Guess I'm just weird. I'm a very alpha male and receiving spanking I'm very submissive and even though it stings and many times down right hurts it relaxes me. I love knowing a spanking is going to take place and want....no crave to present my bottom to her in any position so she can spank me. All too many of our learned people have theories about spanking. It has always been and always will be.
Remember theories are just someone's idea not known fact. Honey please spank me I want to feel my cheeks bouncing and my butt stinging.

This was interesting but I've always assumed that spanking is as old as the human race.
